With Eset did a deep level scan and found nothing . I plan to do a scan with Malwarebytes but I do not know , I have not even downloaded yet. That security breach affects only the website ( Msn ) but American version , or also the Latin American too(es-pe) ?Thanks for posting that link. I had not come across it yet.
It is just like the web-ad problems that Yahoo served up for weeks at a time all thru 2014.
CryptoPrevent should help stop some (most?) ransomware.
Be aware of this issue.
Malwarebytes anti-exploit and Hostsman should help too.
Most of these ad-based infections use Flash. I don't have Flash in IE (64bit) or Pale Moon (64bit). For websites where I need Flash, I use Chrome. Chrome handles updating it built in Pepper Flash well.
As the main theme , one can say that being careful where you click one could avoid finding a virus and therefore use an AV . But what if I have the need to search for information either for work or just for the need to know something more . Otherwise I will have to make several clicks (or download ) to find what I need . Do that without an AV I think is too risky. Have one installed is essential I think.
